Teams awoke to glorious conditions and expectations of a consistent F3/4 NNW. These lasted for the first race of the day, but by the second race, fickle, shifty winds were circling Torbay.

Henry Mills & Robert Keen (Waldringfield) sailing 8845 Hot Rocks were first at the windward from Andrew Smith & Rory Burdock (Royal Lymington/Frensham Pond) in 9243 Blue String Pudding. Third around was Oliver & William Palierakis (Fishers Green) in 7495, fourth was Jack Hardie & Olivia Bates (Frensham Pond) in 9302, fifth was Edward Cummings & Hattie Sexton (Royal Lymington/Frensham Pond) in 9028 She Who Dares and sixth was Jamie Proffitt & Leyla Manthorpe Rizatepe (Fishers Green) in 8846 No Fear. The top three places went unchallenged until the final run, when Will Davis & Jack Collings (Royal Lymington) in 9034 came through to take third place.

Louise Latham & Aaron Chadwick (Fishers Green) in 9635 Shine On and Caroline Croft & Jacob Payne (Frensham Pond) in 7274 Wave Rider traded the lead throughout Race 4, with the latter taking the gun in a close finish. Jamie Proffitt & Leyla Manthorpe Rizatepe (Fishers Green) in 8846 No Fear again started well to lie third at the windward, with Andrew & Rory fourth, Michael Horne & Ben Crane (Frensham Pond) in 9013 Purple Ronnie, fifth and Abigail Croft & Alex Page (Frensham Pond) in 8363 On The Edge, sixth. The experience of Andrew & Rory showed in securing third place, with Henry & Robert fourth and Abigail & Alex fifth.

Sam Yale & Lottie Passmore (Waldringfield) sailing 9369 consolidated their position at the head of the Bronze Fleet with bullets in both Races 3 and 4. Second place in Race 3 went to Sam Cooper & Alex Laidlaw (Frensham Pond) in 9151, with Molly Speirs & Louis Mellor (Frensham Pond) in 9294 Breezer, third. Charlie Anderson & Oli King (Frensham Pond) in 9634 took second place in Race 4 from Ross & Johnny Thompson (Frensham Pond) in 9046 in third.

Being surrounded by hills and mountains has the inevitable effect So far the conditions on Lake Lipno have provided for excellent and challenging sailing, however being surrounded by hills and mountains can mean that the winds are shifty and can be light at time, and this proved to be the case on day 3.
